I got the m performance carbon fibre ones here in canada alberta from the dealership and they charge me $395 for each they had to special order them because they didn't carry them ... stupid expensive. There were replacements no stickers, quality is amazing, so is just a matter of what you want to pay and how long you want them to last.

Got mine from ebay $465 per PAIR incl ship. The $100 ones are stick ons.... the OEM ones are NOT a direct replacement and will require some wood screws and very careful drilling after you take the mirror element out. Thats why the dealership wants $$$$$

I found an auction that looks like it's a straight forward replacement. I have never seen the insides of the performance BMW caps so I have no idea if this is the correct mounting. I also noticed that the performance bmw mirror caps did in fact include screws which this does not seem to utilize.

That looks about right. Why not just get the stick on version? It accomplishes the same thing without you having to crack open your OEM housing. I've seen the replica stick on version and you really can't tell that it's a "stick on".

I have the TETMotorsports ones and were direct cover replacements. Good quality and fit fine. For less that $300, can't go wrong.

I paid 60 bucks to get mine installed at the body shop in town where the BMW dealership sends all their bodywork. You prob won't be able to use the stock caps anymore once the CF ones are installed

Installed mine in ~10 minutes. Hardest part is taking off the old covers which are just pried off. Absolutely love the subtle look they add on a BSM car!!!

you guys might want to consider looking into the Carbon Fiber Mirror Replacement from this supplier in China. I got mine 6 months ago and fit is ok.
These are full replacement CF mirror covers on your F30. I removed existing painted mirror covers and installed these on both sides in 15 minutes. No need to remove mirror lens and nothing to screw or tape on. The manufacturer moulded clips same as OEM attached to the back of the cover that snaps into place on existing slots in the side mirror assembly frame. Paid USD130 for the pair plus USD27.00 delivery charges to Australia. heres's the link: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/2012-...931587098.html |
